Great device for transfer of analog videos

My application is on MAC computer. Straight forward to install software. Instructions for use are too brief. But can be figured out with some usage. Very satisfied with transfer of Hi8 analog videos that are now close to 20 years old to my MAC computer. Very good quality of video and sound.

Elgato Video Capture for Mac and PC

It was time: I had some important VHS tapes that are more than twenty years old that were deteriorating because of age. Elgato Video Capture is the device to use. It costs less than $100 and I ordered it from Walmart. It arrived in California from Arkansas within a week, a business day earlier than promised. In my garage I found an old stereo Video Cassette Recorder (old school VCR) , made sure the four heads inside were shiny clean, and powered it on. No sparks, so I connected the Elgato Video Capture Device to red, white, and yellow output jacks of the VCR. A s-Video plug is also included, but that is for DVDs. The other end has a USB plug that fit into the USB jack of my Macbook. No need to hook up the VCR to a TV; the laptop suffices. Software is downloaded from the Elgato website. Minimum CPU requirements are specified and after installation, a straight-forward window pops up with easy to follow steps. One can clip the beginning and end, but no advance editing tools are included. An hour-long tape uses about one gigabit of storage space. After transferring, I backed everything up on an external harddrive, Over the holidays, I plan to add titles and subtitles in iMovie and stabilize the video in a couple of places, before sharing the clips with friends and family. Perhaps they will enjoy seeing my old VHS tape as it enters the digital age.

Works perfectly

This product met all of my expectations. Simple, quick, worked right out of the box. I went to the website indicated in the instructions to download the driver and software to make sure I had the latest. Within minutes I was capturing video from my VHS player. I am using it to transfer home movies to digital. I am using the "high definition" (default) resolution setting. This gives just over 2Gb per two hour VHS tape. I like the ability to set the software to automatically stop recording after a preselected amount of time. This allows me to start a tape being captured and walk away. I don't need to come back at any particular time since it will stop on its' own.
